Download or read book Mechanochemistry of Solid Surfaces written by ?mmanuil Markovich Gutman and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1994 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the fundamental relationships between solid surface chemical reactivity and the stressed state of surface layers; developed mainly by the author. Acceleration of chemical reactions by mechanical action (mechanochemical effect) and near-surface plasticity increase caused by chemical reactions (chemomechanical effect) acting simultaneously; open new possibilities for the control of a wide range of processes from corrosion to new materials engineering.This monograph is a unique work on this subject and will be essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students engaged in studying surface phenomena in materials science; chemistry and chemical engineering; as well as for scientists and engineers in the industries where these phenomena are important.
